I have a feeling that we will get more information regarding the drop. But yeah, maybe the symbols do dictate some sort of rule.

In every game and con there is always an opponent and there is always a victim. The more control the victim thinks he has, the less control he actually has. Gradually he will hang himself.

Rule one of any game or con: You can only get smarter by playing a smarter opponent.

Rule number two: The more sophisticated the game, the more sophisticated the opponent.

If the opponent is very good, he will place his victim inside an environment he can control. The bigger the environment, the easier the control. Toss the dog a bone, find their weakness, and give them just a little of what they think they want.

The bigger the trick and older the trick, the easier it is to pull; based on two principles:
-They think it can't be that old
and
-They think it can't be that big, for so many people to have fallen for it.

Eventually, when the opponent is challenged or questioned, it means the victim's investment and thus his intelligence is questioned. No-one can accept that, not even to themselves.

I remember Vera was adressing Rhea as "the future".
